The most important aspect of your psychotherapy is your relationship
with the therapist. You require and are entitled to an understanding,
empathetic and dedicated professional. Additionally, that therapist
should have substantial experience to enable her/him to quickly and correctly
analyze the problem and understand the solution. A credible psychotherapist should
have substantial post-graduate research and practice to remain at the "cutting edge"
and have the personality and warmth that enables the client or patient to feel safe
and comfortable in a setting of absolute confidentiality.
